Our IOS community is so amazing. We've had incredible things going on. In mid September we had four goat kids born. Sadly we lost one of our does, Pumpkin, after her delivery. Maybelline stood guard over the Pumpkin's little ones when it became clear that Pumpkin wasn't doing well and couldn't care for them. She is a great nanny.

We had our first work day of the school year and under the direction of one of our talented parents, Willie, our shop was transformed into an art workshop.

Parents and students weeded, moved a mountain of mulch, painted, trimmed, hauled and hoed. It is impressive to see what we can do when we work together.

And finally, our families enjoyed a blissful two days at the lake, camping, canoeing, kayaking and cooking last weekend.

I'm really happy for your community. You guys seem to work well together. I always wanted a peaceful and interactive community, such as yours. Our community is entirely different. They don't work together and they rarely interact with one another. I always long for a productive and proactive community in our town.

Deborah: I believe children need to have more time in the great outdoors and no time bubbling in answer sheets to prepare for standardized tests.
